If you are hurting, please stand...yes, people will look at you, but this is truly between you and God...there were MANY people standing. Some I knew about their problems, others I didn't; I am always surprised when people who seem to have it all together actually have problems. I thought, I'm grateful. I'm at a good place in my life. I'm happy. I'm content. Yet, I have decisions to make - not really a problem, but I do seek God's guidance. I want to live my life for God, and I want to enjoy life. Rather than just live every day, I need to be taking some steps to goal achievement. That requires effort, whereas just being home, and relaxing and enjoying being home...not so much. God is good!<br />Hugs, BethBethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09792341123595520130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-438005146134819802.post-81405591120087275762011-08-28T10:10:56.092-05:002011-08-28T10:10:56.092-05:00Amen..Amen..Victorian1885https://www.blogger.com/profile/03215024946522768901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-438005146134819802.post-7136394128260166362011-08-28T09:17:08.271-05:002011-08-28T09:17:08.271-05:00Amen Sister!

I think you and Jettie and I are all pretty much on the same plane...(not a Boeing either)...and have good days and "bad" days with pain and achiness..but we also thank God that we are not completely incapcitated. After working at the hospital I will never again rail against the lot I have been given. There are so many that have no hope left and my heart aches for them...and yet, it makes me more grateful for the condition I am in.<br /><br />Wonderful post and I love your moss roses(?) xo DianaNanaDianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14298962791700019785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-438005146134819802.post-26947035362272641562011-08-28T06:44:30.953-05:002011-08-28T06:44:30.953-05:00When I'm asking so much in prayer I have to dr...When I'm asking so much in prayer I have to draw myself up and remember to thank Him for all the blessings he has given me and others.

Yes, I've thoug...What a beautiful sentiment. <br /><br />Yes, I've thought a lot about what if. Before I turned to God, I worried a lot about losing possessions, but now they don't seem to be nearly as important. They are that, Just Possessions, most of which I could get by very well without.<br /><br />Praying for the people who are dealing with Irene this day. <br />Hugs<br />JJettiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06066364438026606314noreply@blogger.com
